🧪ART in CKD 🔹 Golden rule: Adjust NRTIs (except ABC); others usually no change 🔹 Avoid/limit Tenofovir TDF ❌ if eGFR <30 (nephrotoxic) TAF ✅ safer (use if eGFR ≥15) 🔹 Preferred regimens CKD: ABC + 3TC (dose adjust) + DTG Or TAF-based + INSTI (if eGFR ≥15) 🔹 No dose adjustment NNRTIs, Protease inhibitors, Integrase inhibitors 🔹 Hemodialysis Give ART after HD Adjust only NRTIs 👉 Bottom line: Avoid TDF in advanced CKD, use ABC/TAF-based regimens, and pair with INSTI (DTG/BIC). #GSR #BuddingNephros #Nephrology #HIV #CKD #ART #Dialysis

Bacterial vaginosis is not an STD but yes it is closely linked to sexual activity, particularly with a new partner or multiple partners. 📌Ok let’s talk about Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) BV is an infection of the Vagina that is due to overgrowth of bacteria that results from an imbalance in the normal vaginal flora (a decrease in beneficial lactobacilli and an increase in other bacteria such as Gardnerella and other anaerobes). Ok let me break this down in simple terms for all of us. See thread 👇

Next we going to talk about Candidiasis. I promised to talk about all the infections that present with abnormal discharge. Follow my page for more educative stuff on women’s Health 📌 Note, I will be talking about Vulvovaginal Candidiasis in particular in my next thread.
